Watching the Rain Fall
I am laying in bed watching the rain fall while snuggled up with Renegade. The past couple of weeks have been a real adventure for me and it is nice to take a few moments to just enjoy a little down time. I do have to work this afternoon, so I know this moment won’t last. I am surrounded by Taylor’s lime green walls, a loud yet strangely comforting contrast to my orchids at the foot of the bed. Renegade is half asleep with his front legs wrapped around my body pillow, a rather amusing sight.
I was two weeks ago which in turn landed me in a lot of pain. I missed a few days of work trying to get into my doctor and heal. Between doctor visits my mom and I strolled around Mariano’s, a grocery store near by I have been wanting to go to and have not been able to. I added a new tiny orchid to my collection from Mariano’s. We also took time to look at cars while we were waiting. My brother and I were finally able to find vehicles that suit our lifestyles well. The freedom of having my own car again has been very refreshing. It has been years since I had my own car. Years since I haven’t had to coordinate every hour of my day with someone else just to get to and from work let alone anywhere else. It is a very refreshing feeling.
The weather has been unseasonably warm. It has been in the 70s and 80s and flowers are starting to bloom outside. I fear that we will get another cold blast which will kill many of the poor confused plants. It would be nice however to see some of the insects die down. There are all ready fleas ticks and mosquitoes out pestering the world. With such a mild winter it is to be expected. It is still beautiful out though.
